So what you’re going to do is basically the + and - in each top hand corner is the charge of compound, so for example Li has a charge of +1 while Br has a charge of -1 , to write the formula you need to get the charges to cancel out ( equal zero) so luckily this was easy because -1 +1 =0 ! So it would be LiBr. Though for another example Al has a charge of 3+ while br has a charge of -1 and these do not equal zero, so as a result you have to add more br making the Formula AlBr3! Hope this helps!

Which is not a product of the fractional distillation of petroleum?

Natalka [10]

Answer:
Option-C, <u>STEEL</u> <span>is not a product of the fractional distillation of petroleum.

Explanation:
Petroleum is the mixture of Hydrocarbons *carbon and hydrogen containing compounds) present beneath the Earth's surface. Petroleum is formed from the remains of animals and plants beneath earth's surface in an anaerobic conditions.
Petroleum contains from small hydrocarbons (gases) to medium (liquids) and long chain hydrocarbons (Solids). These hydrocarbons are separated from each other by Fractional Distillation method (separation due to difference in boiling points)
Gasoline is a derivative of one of the fraction of petroleum used in internal combustion engines.
Jet Fuel is also derived from Kerosene and Naphtha fractions of petroleum.
While, Steel is inorganic Alloy (mixture of metals) composed of mainly Iron, Carbon and other elements.</span>

Name the noble gas atom that has the same electron configuration as each ion in the compound rubidium oxide

Zepler [3.9K]

In rubidium oxide - Rb₂O , the ions are Rb⁺ and O²⁻
Rb is a group one element with one valence electron. To become stable it loses its outer electron to gain a complete outer shell.
Electronic configuration of Rb is - 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p⁶ 5s¹
Once it loses its valence electron the configuration is;
- 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p⁶
The noble gas with this configuration is Krypton - Kr

Oxygen electron configuration is 1s² 2s² 2p⁴
Once it gains 2 electrons the configuration is - 1s² 2s² 3p⁶
The noble gas with this configuration is Neon - Ne
